ReplyDeleteIf only such efforts to expose sex abuse crimes would extend to the general public, and not be segregated to the religious realm, we might actually make some headway on ending this terrible epidemic that affects 1 in 4 girls and 1 in 7 boys by the time they are 18 years old. Far more brothers,Uncles, Fathers, grandfathers, step-fathers, live-in boy friends, Mothers, sisters, cousins and neighbors sexually abuse children than do priests or pastors. And I'll wager far more get shuffled away, and quieted down and not reported nor prosecuted than those in the churches.
